Knowledge management (KM) comprises a range of strategies and practices used in an organization to identify, create, represent, distribute, and enable adoption of [[/wiki/Insight|insights]] and [[/wiki/Experience|experiences]]. Such insights and experiences comprise [[/wiki/Knowledge|knowledge]], either embodied in individuals or embedded in organizations as [[/wiki/Business_process|processes]] or practices. An established [[/wiki/List_of_academic_disciplines|discipline]] since 1991 (see [[/wiki/Knowledge_management#CITEREFNonaka1991|Nonaka 1991]]), KM includes courses taught in the fields of [[/wiki/Business_administration|business administration]], [[/wiki/Information_systems|information systems]], management, and library and [[/wiki/Information_sciences|information sciences]](__Alavi & Leidner 1999__). More recently, other fields have started contributing to KM research; these include information and media, [[/wiki/Computer_science|computer science]], [[/wiki/Public_health|public health]], and [[/wiki/Policy|public policy]]. Many large companies and non-profit organizations have resources dedicated to internal KM efforts, often as a part of their [[/wiki/Strategic_management|business strategy]], information technology, or [[/wiki/Human_resource_management|human resource management]] departments (__Addicott, McGivern & Ferlie 2006__). Several consulting companies also exist that provide strategy and advice regarding KM to these organizations.
Knowledge management efforts typically focus on organizational [[/wiki/Goal|objectives]] such as improved performance, [[/wiki/Competitive_advantage|competitive advantage]], innovation, the sharing of lessons learned, integration and [[/wiki/Continuous_improvement|continuous improvement]] of the organization. KM efforts overlap with [[/wiki/Organizational_learning|organizational learning]], and may be distinguished from that by a greater focus on the management of knowledge as a strategic asset and a focus on encouraging the sharing of knowledge. cliquez ici pour plus de détail
